Re: 1.09 and incubator status

MyFaces is officially a top level project now, moving out of the
incubator is just a technical issue anymore!

The next release is being prepared right now (Matthias is working on
this, I think)...

regards,

Martin

Re: 1.09 and incubator status

Well if the ultimate plan is to have only one tree then it makes it
harder on more users to release with two trees (unless we are going to
keep tree2 with the name tree2.)  Otherwise tree2 users have to change
their tags, etc. to tree and the tree1 users need to make the
interface changes.

What about a change in the current tree tag name to treeLegacy and
marking the component as deprecated?  So current users can change
their tags to <x:treeLegacy>.  That way we can use <x:tree> for the
newer tree and avoid the long run confusion of what the heck is tree2?
 What happened to tree1? etc.

Regarding the next release.  I suggest that we resolve any outstanding
tree2 issues so we can officially rename to tree and drop the current
one.  Its been several days since I responded to Oliver's issues but I
haven't heard anything back yet.

I *really* think we should try to avoid having two tree components. 
As Manfred has urged, I am working to resolve any outstanding issues. 
As far as I am aware there are no features missing from tree2 now. 
There is just minor interface differences.

Over the next day or so I will get treeTable into shape (which depends
on tree.)  That should be the last obstacle to releasing the new tree
and removing the old.

we asked the board of the ASF about the TCK.
The board requested for the JSR#127 TCK. But
I guess that will take again some time :-(

So ne detailed plan or a specific date regarding
be *certified* JSF impl.

HTH,

That's great to hear, Martin.

Matthias, can you give me some details?

Also, are there any plans for the TCK?

Kito-

Martin is right. We are now a top level project of the ASF.
The infrastructure guys are working on things like
mailinglists, DNS entry, and so one.

What we did in December was a vote regarding releasing
MyFaces 1.0.8. There were enough votes from committers
and user.

That version is available right now here:
http://cvs.apache.org/dist/incubator/myfaces/builds/

What happens next is I start rolling the RC for MyFaces 1.0.9
and start again a vote regaring releasing.

That will be the next "official" release since 1.0.7 (sourceforge based
code). It is easier to release as an top level project as an subproject
(MyFaces *was* a subproject of incubator)

Also we are about to convert more and more documents to forrest
(to our Apache homepage)

So after that, hopefully all doubts against MyFaces are obsolete ;)

HTH,
Matthias
